Abstract:

Electricity distribution through utility companies is one of the most important sectors of power distribution, because besides providing power to homes, businesses, across states and countries; it is also very delicate, and if not implemented/maintained properly, can be very dangerous to the rest of the society at large. The distribution of electricity can be done in a variety of ways. Most popularly used in today’s day and age is the distribution of electricity through overhead power lines. According to the Edison Electric Institute, “70 percent of wires in the U.S. are . . . on overhead poles” simply because they have relatively cheaper installation and repair costs, compared to other options, for example underground distribution (Wissel). In this report, we shall go into an in depth analysis of the construction of overhead power lines, the materials used, the costs associated, as well as their advantages and disadvantages.
